    I played over 160-200 BKs (adventure and ls) last 4-5 months and got 0 Dark Castle, the drop rate seems so low, almost impossible to get one.

    2 years ago dark castles from BK, white castles from SftR and Witch towers from DB were an expected part of the game, now they are as rare as a BB response to a query.

    Yes, the odd one drops, as in notes, but in general they no longer appear. The same is true of SLT dropping from VLT. Now on zero from last 12 VLT - oh and 2 quests in that time too. Bad luck.....? Sorry, but the amount of 'luck' you have is also determined by the drop rate and that has been reduced to a tiny level now.

    Before the adventure loot rates were changed, I got like 6-8 Dark Castles on my way to level 50.

    Ever since ... I got none. And that includes LOTS of lootspots and events. Just for pointers, I got over 30k Saltpeter from doing BK ...

    Your not telling us the full story, for example have you had any other FT's drop.
    When it comes to Gene pools and shallow ends they can be found at the bar drinking pina colada's

    I fell your pain in getting such a small amount of salt for your efforts.

    yeah, bad luck. I've played zillions of SFTR and no building yet, even though it's a 1.5%. Oh well, it goes that way sometimes. My wife Diwata has a exotic wood curse - no matter how many BK she plays she always gets exotic wood instead of granite - this has happened some 20 times in a row.

    I keep my head low when I say I found granite.
    Sorry, but I've slept since then...

    Its a RNG so there is no guarantee no matter how many times you complete the adventure.

    Perhaps a luck modifyer should be added for the rare items.

    +1 per completion until you have 100 then its guaranteed to drop

    just a thought.
